Smoke plume from fire lagrangian simulation and validation using ground-based lidar data

Research output: AbstractPaperpeer-review

Abstract

In this work we performed a numerical simulation of the plume dispersed from a fire. A field experiment, carried out in August 2013 in Idaho (USA), was considered for comparison. The numerical model is a Lagrangian particle model with a new plume rise scheme able to dynamically simulate the buoyancy effect due to the high temperature of the plume. Comparisons of model results with lidar ground-based measurements are shown.
